註釋
Challenging the standard interpretation of Nietzsche's last published work,
Ecce Homo
, as frivolous autobiography, Thomas H. Brobjer provides an original and detailed analysis of
Ecce Homo
as fundamental to Nietzsche's unfinished masterwork on the revaluation of all values.
Arguing that
Ecce Homo
laid the foundations for his planned four-volume work on values, Brobjer draws together the intentions and motivations behind Nietzsche's late work to create a new narrative on it. He situates this period in the desire to undermine the system of Christian values that Nietzsche believed were unchecked as the standard moral gauge for his time. To engage in this project, Brobjer shows that it was essential for Nietzsche to explore the self and life-denying qualities of a Christian system of values within a broader framework of ideas about morality, altruism, egotism, pessimism, humility and pride.
By fully outlining the context of
Ecce Homo
, Brobjer provides a complete corrective to its reception as a self-referential and eccentric text of little philosophical significance, enabling a new understanding within the history of philosophy and Nietzsche's oeuvre.
